Christmas during the American Revolution!
250 years ago, in December 1775, George Walton was in Savannah as he was elected president of the Council of Safety for the new state of Georgia. In 1776, after signing the Declaration of Independence, he spent his Christmas in Philadelphia. When the British approached and the Congress moved to Maryland, George Walton was appointed as a special committee to execute the necessary business of Congress in Philadelphia. Christmas at Meadow Garden will follow George Walton’s travels for each Christmas during the American Revolution 1775-1783.
